that block at 3:00 was so nasty he faked the timing of his jump, and was so quick and explosive he re-gathered and spiked that ball. oh man that is cold
Statistically Kobe is considered the greatest Laker. Majic is often left out of best Laker and GOAT discussion. Majic has championship hardware starting in highschool, college and the NBA. Much respect for Kobe but Majic is the greatest Laker hands down.
Man. People rever Kobe cause of his untimely death. But maaaan, I think people truly forgot how good this man was. For the fact he is not in every single person's top 3 of all time is crazy. And I'm a Kings fan who hated the guy during his playing career
Kobe was one of the best in game dunkers of all time! And not just dunks on cats( which he has a shit ton of), 360,s, reverses, wind mills, etc. just amazing! 🤩
Thank you kobe for everything. The mamba made a HUGE impact on me and millions of other people's lives in terms of mentality and he always had that "work harder" mindeset. #2 ever, RIP kobe, im thankful you got a statue now in Crypto Areana, you 100% deserve it, Easily one of my favorite players ever. You're the reason i play weather im hurt, weather its hailing, weather im sick, your the reason i work hard and be passionate about anything I do & Enjoy it. ❤
I don’t know anyone better, I don’t know anyone who had the amount of drive that Kobe Bryant had. No one will ever be better than the Black Mamba. You can score thousands of points and break as many records as you want. In my eyes, that doesn’t make you the greatest. What makes him the greatest was his drive. He was driven to win, and he didn’t quit til it was done. If he lost, he evolved, he changed it up and got better. He wanted to be the best. And in my eyes he succeeded in doing that. He is the best, and dare I say he is the greatest of all time.
I had a discussion about how GREAT Kobe was as a player with a neighbor and he said Kiwi Leonard could STOP Kobe and i said no way. LOL. Told my neighbor Kobe would lock down Kiwi defensively ( Kiwi is a very good 2 way player,but,offensively he has 3/4 go to moves ) Kobe would watch game films on Kiwi,then take away those few go to moves,leaving Kiwi confused and disgusted with himself.
What a fitting tribute to a legend t a true legend and one of the few players who elevated the game to a form of art. The term "new-MJ" has been thrown around far too loosely since Jordan's retirement but Kobe is the only one who lived up to the title A tragedy for everyone involved. Rest In Peace Kobe
I was never a Kobe fan back in the day, mainly because he destroyed my team 😅 but ive always been a fan of his game! He was one of those rare gems that could just dominate at the highest level back when you got beat up in the paint 😂😂 as much as I love his ankle breakers, high IQ passes, his jumper his contact dunks are my favorite he was fearless.
Ahhhh i remember growing up a laker fan. My family (extended family included) would all gather around my aunt's big screen so we could watch Kobe go to work. After watching him so much.... It was almost like i took how good he was for granted. I would just expect his greatness which is nuts. He was one of the greatest ever. And i watched nearly every game from 2000 to 2015. RIP Mamba. You were the greatest i ever got to watch and you inspired me to work hard and be my best self. From the 40 point streak to the 50 point streak to the playoff heroics. I loved and now miss every second.
Kobe and Jordan are the greatest, most spectacular and the most skilled 2 way players of all time with 5 & 6 Rings, Winning Finals Records, 3peats and Dynasties for their Team in a Team Sport.
I agree. And a lot of players have been compared to MJ, but for me Kobe was and is the closest thing. And he's damn close! I think Jordan is still better, but only by like 5-10%. Skill wise they're basically the same. But for me Jordan was more efficient on offense and a slightly better defender than Kobe. But at their absolute best, there's not much between them.
1 of the five players who elevated basketball into an art-form along with MJ Steph Kyrie and Magic. I knpw that Lebron is more complete as a player but there's something about that fastbreak-offense during the Showtime-era that's just otherworldly.
Has there ever been a player in NBA history... to get more of a reaction from the away crowd, as Kobe has? (Maybe Dr.J back in the day). Here's just a few... Game winner at Charlotte (14:12)... listen to the crowd! Reverse dunk at Minnesota in the playoffs (17:33). My favorite Kobe dunk. Reaction from the amazed crowd. Rainbow game winner at Portland (20:55)... half the crowd had their hands up after the shot went in! The reverse dunk at Golden State (42:50). Again at least half the crowd celebrated the dunk. The drive and dunk on 2 at Brooklyn (43:30)... listen to the whole Brooklyn crowd go "Oooohhhh" at the same time! The video does not show the reverse pivot move at the Garden, where the crowd was mixed with "Ohhh" and laughter at Kobe's gorgeous move.
This video showed the rise, the maturity, the explosiveness, it showed everything that Kobe was and to say he's not top two, hell, not even top five is blasphemous ... I love Jordan but me growing up and who I got to watch Kobe is my GOAT and he has the accolades to back it but no one is wrong for who they choose for that title
As a Sacramento Kings fan, I would always hate it that Kobe would just destroy my Sacramento Kings over and over again, but that's just how great Kobe is. He's called the "Black Mamba" for a reason. Kobe will forever be in my top 2 behind Michael Jordan
Tell me your favorite Mamba Memory
Kobe Last Game vs Jazz
Every Championship he’s won Kobe the Goat
Every Kobe moment is a good memory but Kobe smiling after winning his 5th is different
Kobe’s Last Game and Achilles Game both were special to me, defines who he was as a player both games were legendary. Long Live Kobe #mambaforever 💜💛
“Mamba Out” 60 piece against Utah 😵💫
I will never get tired of watching Kobe highlights 😊
Facts, kobe is the goat 🐐
that’s because you my friend understand what it takes to be a Mamba 🙌🏾
No cap😊
Me neither. Most of these games I remember tho,Kobe was schooling these nba players like they were in high-school. LOL.
always
Poetry in motion, there will never be another Kobe Bryant
We saw a fearless kid become an unstoppable man! 💛💜💛
This man was special and will be remembered forever
NBA today is completely boring compared to Kobe Bryant seasons. The most spectacular player the world has ever seen
People hate on Kobe because he dunked on everyone’s favorite player 😅
He has some incredibly underrated posters
Fr my guy Nash took one of the worst 😂
that block at 3:00 was so nasty he faked the timing of his jump, and was so quick and explosive he re-gathered and spiked that ball. oh man that is cold
So underrated. Incredible block

The Greatest Laker of All Time
Greatest lakers ever live
Statistically Kobe is considered the greatest Laker. Majic is often left out of best Laker and GOAT discussion. Majic has championship hardware starting in highschool, college and the NBA. Much respect for Kobe but Majic is the greatest Laker hands down.
@@OwenVaughn-v8s talking all over the place
Maybe so but Majic set the Laker standard and Kobe continued those championship ways.
@@OwenVaughn-v8s into becoming the greatest laker of all time
I don't ever get tired of watching Kobe Bryant highlights 💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥🙏
for me ,kobe is the goat🐐
He's my Goat
I would’ve liked the comment but I wanted to leave it at 24.
Man. People rever Kobe cause of his untimely death. But maaaan, I think people truly forgot how good this man was. For the fact he is not in every single person's top 3 of all time is crazy. And I'm a Kings fan who hated the guy during his playing career
kobe is undoubtably 2nd all time
Will always say the name "Kobe" whenever there's a ball in my hands🏀💛💜. RIP Mamba🕊
Whenever I feel like quitting, I watch Kobe highlights. Picks me up every time.#RIPMAMBA!!!
Kobe was one of the best in game dunkers of all time! And not just dunks on cats( which he has a shit ton of), 360,s, reverses, wind mills, etc. just amazing! 🤩
This man wasn't an athlete, he was an artist
KOBE IS THE GOAT WON 5 TITLES MVPS,FINALS MVPS,SCORING TITLES,DEFENSIVE SELECTIONS HE DID IT ALL

One of the Greatest Players to ever play RIP
Only one MVP season is insanity to me. One of the most skilled and greatest of all time!!! RIP Mamba 💜💛
That Kobe statue gave me goosebumps. Congratulation & RiP KB 8/24 🙏🏾

62 in 3 quarters is by far my favorite

@@kerry-j4m Kobe was a different animal. He was built different.
Kobe 62, Dallas (the whole team) 61
The beginning has always been my favorite... What a privilege to have been able to watch him through out his whole career 💛💜
Great work, Mamba Forever ∞
That's what made the black mamba who he was 💯👍💪
What a fitting tribute to a legend t a true legend and one of the few players who elevated the game to a form of art.

Kobe is the most complete player
Kobe is the goat
Kobe you brought my family and me so much joy throughout your career… thank you for all the great memories.. forever mamba!!

The only laker I’ll ever root for Kobe the Goat
kobe's dunk at 17:30 is his best career dunk of all time! insane
